The Eternal Truth Within Poem by Mohammad Younus

This mysterious preoccupation—the remembrance of God—courses through me like an ancient river, carved into the landscape of my fitrah. It moves with quiet certainty, weaving a thread of grace into every moment of my life. In its touch, I find solace—a gentle balm that whispers: You are whole. I do not complain about my state, whether it be a matter of body, mind, or spirit. Instead, I rest in quiet contentment, a state of being that is impartial and impersonal, yet deeply alive with God-consciousness. It is this consciousness that anchors me to my essence, a luminous thread connecting me to my Beloved.

To be aware of God's omnipresence is to hold the key to reality itself. It is a quiet yet resounding truth: in His presence, I am aligned, and in my alignment, I open the door to enlightenment. The belief in Absolute Unity—wahdat ul wajud—courses through my being like an eternal song. It humbles me, yet it frees me. I do not long for salvation from a savior or yearn for union, for I see myself as already woven into the fabric of the whole. I am not separate; I am an expression of the One, just as all souls are strung like beads on the divine thread that binds creation.

In my stillness, I perceive myself as an axis of light, descending through my physical form. It is not merely a presence within me; it is my origin, my essence, my eternal home. This light is neither borrowed nor imposed—it is mine, and yet, it belongs entirely to Him. Through it, I see the world illuminated, not as fragments but as a unified field of existence.

I walk this path without striving, without the weight of yearning, for I have tasted the truth of belonging. And in this belonging, I stand whole, radiant, a drop reflecting the ocean, a soul forever connected to its divine source.
